Chinese herbal medicine involves the use of natural plant and mineral substances to produce healing changes in the body. With a 3000-year history, the Chinese herbal pharmacopeia is one of the most extensively studied and thoroughly documented medicinal systems in existence.

Chinese herbal medicine is regarded as a powerful complement to acupuncture treatment. Many practitioners use Chinese herbs as a way of offering the body continual therapeutic input between acupuncture treatments. By taking herbs on a daily basis, the positive momentum created by acupuncture is enhanced. Single herbs are typically formulated into synergistic combinations to produce maximum therapeutic results without side effects. Furthermore, custom formulas are created based upon the unique constitution and diagnosis of each patient.

Herbal medicine works from the inside out by treating the core imbalances that underlie your symptoms. The long-term use of Western drugs for chronic health problems can be detrimental to the foundation of one's health. This is why it is often best to pursue plant-based medicines and proper nutrition whenever possible before resorting to Western medications. Herbs offer a more gentle, life-affirming way to heal oneself.
